Sorry for jumping in.
In the official xHarbour documentation, when presenting {^ } values, so
date-time lilerals it's presented how to differentiate days, hours, minutes,
seconds. For example
d1 := {ˆ 2007/04/26 18:30:00 }
d1 + 2
d1 + 2/24
d1 + 2/(24*60)
etc.
These expressions were working last year, now they throw RTE.

All the data continuously generated in your IT infrastructure contains a
definitive record of customers, application performance, security
threats, fraudulent activity and more. Splunk takes this data and makes
